With its popularity in the United States crashing, Israel is bankrolling what organizers say will be the largest campaign of its kind to bolster support among evangelical churches, until recently seen as an unshakable base of support for the Jewish state.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry has hired an American firm to run the campaign, with plans to spend as much as $4.1 million on marketing aimed at Christians across the Western part of the country, according to newly filed federal disclosures.
The documents, filed last week under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, reveal that Show Faith by Works, LLC will execute what it bills as the “largest Christian Church Geofencing Campaign in U.S. history.”
A newly formed company with a San Diego address, Show Faith by Works is run by Chad Schnitger, a prominent Christian conservative activist in California.
The initiative is designed to reach churchgoers with digital ads that are explicitly “pro-Israel and anti-Palestinian,” while dispatching a mobile “October 7th Experience” exhibit to church parking lots and Christian colleges.
The campaign adds a new prong to Israel’s U.S. communications blitz, complementing a $1.5 million-per-month contract for AI-driven social media activity with former Trump campaign strategist Brad Parscale and a contract with a firm called Bridge Partners to create an influencer network called the Esther Project.
The PR blitz was anticipated after Israel’s Foreign Ministry was allocated $150 million in this year’s budget for public relations efforts.

They need to spend 100x that amount to make a dent in antisemitism here.
And where is the money coming from to produce and air those ads?
Israel’s economy is still half Socalist.
It’s too bad they need to spend anything. The Left calls everyone else Nazis, but they support the very people who sided with the Nazis in WWII.
GTFO.
4 million isn’t very much money for this sort of thing
Those ads are done by Christian scammers.
"I keep seeing these commercials about elderly Jews in Israel starving to death and living in squalor."
That’s what my spidey senses tell me. Not sure if the scammers are Christians themselves but whoever is behind those organizations know how gullible we can be.
"Those ads are done by Christian scammers."
Catholics know that “A.D.” Israel is Holy Mother Church.
Senator Cruz revealed his ignorance of this fact to Qatarlson.
As more lay Catholics and non-Catholic or “denominationalist” Christians (and hopefully Cruz himself learn the truth of the matter, the modern state of Israel will need to adjust its approach.
Not that it isn’t a natural ally of the U.S. (and among our natural allies a particularly good ally) worthy of support in the normal course, but Israel should stop trying deliberately to tug at biblical heartstrings.
Yes, thanks. I did mean that those ads target Christians for scamming. Jews in America are besieged by Jewish organizations seeking money. They don’t need TV ads.
Israel GDP per capita is $55-60,000 with very high taxes and robust social welfare, including many actual charitable organizations for Israel’s 10 million citizens.
Same thing for Ukraine. They can afford to give an American crack head and his senile father millions of dollars but they can’t afford 19 dollars a month to feed 90 year old holocaust survivors? How many can there be?
No argument from me..
I also see it as a scam.
$4 million compared to what? The 2,000 million Kamala Harris ran thru?
Israel spends PENNIES, in essence, trying to build support in the USA. However...I don’t think Israel NEEDS to spend money building support among Christian churches. Many churches are already strongly pro-Israel.
The nutjob liberals are the ones they need to reach, and they are not found in Christian churches.
We know it’s NOT from the Billions we give in Military aid to control Israel’s foreign policy. That money MUST be spent on US MIC weapons projects
Perhaps. But wouldn’t that free up funds to feed 90 year old holocaust survivors? I mean 19 dollars a month isn’t really that much. And how many 90 year old holocaust survivors can there be?
Now what did the devil offer Christ????
For some reason that reminded me of someone else's claim to aristocracy. LOL
